More quotes by Amelia Earhart
The best way to do it, is to do it!
Amelia Earhart
Please let us not interfere with the other's work or play, nor let the world see our private joys or disagreements. In this connection I may have to keep some place where I can go to be myself, now and then, for I cannot guarantee to endure at all times the confinements of even an attractive cage.
Amelia Earhart
Please know that I am aware of the hazards. I want to do it because I want to do it. Women must try to do things as men have tried. When they fail, their failure must be a challenge to others.
Amelia Earhart
Women must pay for everything. They do get more glory than men for comparable feats, but, they also get more notoriety when they crash.
Amelia Earhart
I have often said that the lure of flying is the lure of beauty. That the reasons flyers fly, whether they know it or not, is the aesthetic appeal of flying.
Amelia Earhart
As soon as we left the ground, I knew I had to fly.
Amelia Earhart
Anticipation, I suppose, sometimes exceeds realization.
Amelia Earhart
Women, like men, should try to do the impossible. And when they fail, their failure should be a challenge to others.
Amelia Earhart
The most difficult thing is the decision to act!
Amelia Earhart
My ambition is to have this wonderful gift produce practical results for the future of commercial flying and for the women who may want to fly tomorrow's planes.
Amelia Earhart
Human crises have a way of happening at inconvenient times.
Amelia Earhart
the stars seemed near enough to touch and never before have i seen so many. i always believed the lure of flying is the lure of beauty, but i was sure of it that night.
Amelia Earhart
It is the woman who chooses the man who will choose her.
Amelia Earhart
No kind action ever stops with itself. One kind action leads to another. Good example is followed. A single act of kindness throws out roots in all directions, and the roots spring up and make new trees. The greatest work that kindness does to others is that it makes them kind themselves.
Amelia Earhart
Ours is the commencement of a flying age, and I am happy to have popped into existence at a period so interesting.
Amelia Earhart
Now and then women should do for themselves what men have already done—occasionally what men have not done—thereby establishing themselves as persons, and perhaps encouraging other women toward greater independence of thought and action.
Amelia Earhart
There is so much that must be done in a civilized barbarism like war.
Amelia Earhart
Some of us have great runways already built for us. If you have one, take off. But if you don't have one, realize it is your responsibility to grab a shovel and build one for yourself and for those who will follow after you.
Amelia Earhart
If enough of us keep trying, we'll get someplace.
Amelia Earhart
Never interrupt someone doing what you said couldn't be done. You can do anything you decide to do. You can act to change and control your life the process is its own reward. Women, like men, should try to do the impossible. And if they fail, their failure should be a challenge to others.
